Although Egyptian contribution in the study of astrology has been found only after the ages of the birth of Christ,
we must evaluate high their contribution in the theoretical insight given to astrology that was
never achieved by either Grecian or the people of Mesopotamia previously performed.
We can see the descriptions made by Egyptian in the names of Teucer, Dorotheus, Manetho, Ptolemy and Valens.
Teucer was born in the small town near nowadays Cairo, formerly named Babylon of Egypt that was a military
outpost of Egyptian army located. Teucer has wrote in the late first century the astrological characters of planet Mars.
Dorotheus was an astrologer and poet born in a port of South West Lebanon but he was called as the Egyptian.
Dorotheus was active in the fist century AD and he wrote books on astrology by explaining a type of Horoscopic system.
He has commented his system in detail explored.
Although he has roughly described the tenth zodiac sign counted from the Ascending zodiac sign at the birth of
a person to indicate the zenith of heaven or MC designated, Dorotheus was the first person who described
briefly the concept of the mundane house division of nowadays technique of astrology explored. There was no
indication of mess of confusion on the misunderstanding between the zodiac sign from the constellation nominated.
Manetho was astrological poet in early years of the second century
and wrote six books in astrology released. Claudius Ptolemaios or Ptolemy (100 – 178) was the world famous astrologer.
We see his books as the world first series of text books on astrology in Egypt released. Vettius Valens was an entirely
different person and moved to Alexandria Egypt from Turkey and wrote nine books in astrology. Valens worked as
a professional astrologer and proprietor of an astrological school established.
These astrological works in Egypt
were all described after the years of the birth of Christ and those of ancient descriptions in Egypt were all in the arts of
astronomical observations that were faulty interpreted by a student of research as to be the description made for astrology in mistake.We do not know the true reason of rapid development of the research of astrology in Egypt after the first century.
We can now imagine two major reasons of an explosive boom up of Egyptian astrology. One may be from the change
of life style in conversion from the belief of resurrection from death
to the more realistic life that had to cease the long
habit in making mummifies of dead rulers. Another reason may be from the peaceful calm life of people after the downfalls
of the surrounding countries in Greek and Mesopotamia happened would be beneficial for the study of astrology.
Although we cannot tell by know the true reason, however, it is evident that the rapid growth of astrological study in
Egypt after the long sleep found in the first and second centuries were amazing.
We can see the most ancient civilization
of Mesopotamia was concentrated in to the peaceful newly Grecian language circle of Egypt in those days. 
マネトーは西暦二世紀にエジプトで活躍した著名な占星学者の一人で六冊の著書が残っています。
トレミー・プトレマイオス(100 – 178)は世界最初の総合的な占星学教科書のテトラビブロスの著者として有名です。
ヴァレンス(120 – 175)はホロスコープ形式の占星学を理論的に解説した著書を記述した世界最初の人物といいます。
このように、エジプトの記録が占星学の研究として認められたのはキリスト誕生以後の新しい時代になってからです。
それ以前のエジプトの記録は原始的な天文学の記録を占星学と勘違いした一部の学者の思い違いです。
